French Holiday 2016 Dinan & Cote d’Amour Pink Granite Coast

French Holiday 2016 Dinan & Cote d'Amour Pink Granite CoastFrench Holiday 2016 Dinan & Cote d’Amour Pink Granite Coast:

We decided to head back to France again in 2016 and booked a holiday through Brittany Ferries.  We were booked to leave Plymouth on the 19th May on the Pont Aven at 8.45 p.m for the overnight crossing to Roscoff.  To start the holiday off with a lovely restaurant meal on board in their Flora Restaurant and then retire to our Commodore Cabin being rocked to sleep to wake up in Roscoff the following morning.   However, that did not happen as the Pont Aven developed a propeller problem which meant we had to re-arrange an alternative crossing.  Brittany Ferries laid on an additional earlier crossing on the Thursday leaving Plymouth at 2.00 p.m and arriving in Roscoff at 8.30 p.m. on the Armorique.  This actually worked out very well, as we had an extra night in France, paid for from the refund we received from Brittany Ferries due to our original crossing being cancelled.  [Read more…] about French Holiday 2016 Dinan & Cote d’Amour Pink Granite Coast

WRONG!! After seeing a news article a few months ago, I was actually shocked to see that the majority of our milk is produced by intensively farmed cows (this link was not the actual article but it makes interesting reading)  kept inside in cramped conditions in barns and never seeing a green field and not a blade of grass is consumed.

Weekend in St Malo France September 2015
The Beautiful Walled City of St Malo

As we were not having a long holiday in 2015 we decided to have 2 long weekends in France.  One back in June when we stayed in Roscoff  and another where we have just returned from a stay in  St Malo.  Having Plymouth just 12 miles down the road to cross the Channel to Roscoff  with  Brittany Ferries is just too good an opportunity to take advantage of [Read more…] about Weekend in St Malo France September 2015

Hearing Dog Puppy Cocker Spaniel Enzo Comes to Stay

I am a volunteer with the Hearing Dogs for Deaf People.  I am not a full time socialiser but offer to board puppies whilst their full time socialiser is on holiday.  I have had a few puppies come to stay with me over the last few years and you can read my previous blogs about each one, but this time in August it was little Enzo’s turn to come and stay for a week.

Bolsover Junk MailARE YOU BEING INUNDATED WITH BOLSOVER JUNK MAIL?

I have been on a few cruises and before I book I did tend to phone various Cruise operators to get quotes with one being Bolsover. This now I know was a big mistake, as I have been inundated with their marketing mail which has become quite a nuisance.  [Read more…] about Bolsover Junk Mail
